Looking back, why did mad people clown Nas and his overall outlook post-Stillmatic?

[Pop123]

Hip hop is devil culture bro. Of course anything deemed as positive and peaceful is going to be corny and hated on

Uncle Murda? Who? Old crusty ass nikka's mind is like a 5th grader. Rhymes too. That's one sorry ass rapper.

50 Cent has Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda on his roster, lol. Just think about that for a second.

Uncle Murda from Brooklyn, most of his jokes against Nas were more lighthearted along that fact, I think most people who dissed Nas like 50 Cent Camron Jay are genuinely his biggest fans.

It wasn’t that serious

It's cool but I still think he's a bum and terrible rapper.

I was really young around Stillmatic but even I remember the older dudes in my hood clowning Nas around this time saying he raps about "the moon and the stars" and leaning much more heavily towards Rocafella, State Property, Dipset, etc. In hindsight, Nas was becoming a much more serious artist with songs like One Mic and I Can. A far departure from Oochie Wally and You Owe Me from 1999/2000. I guess that's why.

i remember him getting clowned more for songs like "you owe me" and being criticized for being contradictory, both before & after that song.

I'm not sure what you're referring to

He had his dipset beef

You had sohh clowning him for signing with def jam when Jay was the president, but that's the sohh being stupid..

The Hip hop is dead thing hurt some feelings but that wasn't that serious...

Outside of that, I don't think anybody has been clowning Nas

 

[blankstairz]

Nas will always get clowned by his peers, childhood friends, fans, etc. because nobody can touch him. Not even Jay.

"some say hating is confused admiration"

 

[Kliq_Souf]

I remember battle rappers round 05-06 had some bars saying he was on some earthy shyt
I think Mook did too

 

[Cladyclad]

Y’all nas stan are losers. It’s like y’all masochists or something. Y’all make threads to complain with each other lol. No one was hating on nas then and they not now. Time in the spotlight is fleeting.

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

I Don’t Remember Anyone Clowning Nas, Except For Dipset Giving Him shyt, Who Was Clowning Nas?

basically Hov stans and people who just weren't Nas fans to begin with. i've encountered people in real life who bring up the Oochie wally to one mic shyt..thats all they can say too. I like Hov and Nas so its just funny to me.

 

[Wild self]

Funny how so few people posted about this important issue.

Cats like to cover up history
